Not the cheapest honing steel, but it is the lowest price on Amazon it's been in 5 years if you're on the market for one.
Good Deal?

Seems overpriced and too short for a honing steel.

Rule of thumb on honing rods is 1 inch for every inch of blade length. So this will be good for a knife with a 9 inch blade. OAL is about 14".

Is this good to stab through the top of someone's foot?

I know this comment is pretty dull, so expect to face sharp criticism.

The shorter lengths are ok. But if your only going to have one, you get the longer one. Been using mine for the last 20+ year. Good ones are better than the uber cheap ones. However I have never tried a combo surface. Just the micro groove.

Shun knifes can NOT be horned, due to single edge blade, and nearly impossible to sharpen to with a whetstone, unless one is real meticulous and knows the technique. Why do Shun make and sell horning tool is a mystery to when they tell customer to not to sharpen their knives, but send to them for professional sharpening.
